This fifth `Essential' volume collects Amazing Spider-Man issues #90-113 originally published between November 1970 and October 1972. Stan Lee is the credited writer for most stories (#90-100, 105-110) with Roy Thomas scripting #101-104 and Gerry Conway beginning his run in #111. The pencil work is split between Gil Kane (#90-92, 96-105) and `Jazzy' John Romita Sr. (#93-95, 106-113). Lee was the Marvel Comics editor until Thomas assumed the helm for #112.

The Essential Spider-Man, Volume 5 is perhaps the darkest of the Essential Spider-Man releases to come out. Themes dealing with drug addiction, love lost, experiments gone wrong, and characters in psychological torment other than Peter Parker/Spider-Man set a new precedent never before witnessed by the avid Amazing Spider-Man reader at that time.
Included is the controversial Amazing Spider-Man #97 (which did not receive the Comics Code Authority approval seal) that dealt with Harry Osborn's ... Read More

In this volume we say good bye to stan lee, which is not good. I always liked it better when Stan Lee was writing and in this volume it shows the series getting worse. There are far less comics with spidermans' arch-enemies and more with random other enemies.There are none with some of the villans I always liked more such as scorpion. The only super villans are doc ock, green goblin, the lizard (pretty cool but the comic he is in is about morbius and the lizard is only the lizard for a little while until ... Read More

This answers the question, "When exactly did AMAZING SPIDER-MAN as a series go completely to HELL?" No-it WASN'T when John Romita stopped inking. It WASN'T when Gwen Stacy was murdered (which, after all these years, it turned out it was John Romita's...idea). And no-it WASN'T even when Stan Lee stopped writing "his" main character!!! NO!!! It was when GIL KANE started DRAWING the [darn] book, THAT'S when!!! Kane's people are UGLY, his anatomy is AWKWARD, and his storytelling has NO sense of fun or humor ... Read More

Volume 5 of the "Essential Spider-Man" covers the end of Stan Lee's run as the writer on his most famous comic creation. Lee wrote through issue #100, then Roy Thomas penned issues #101-104, Lee returned for issues #105-110, and then Gerry Conway (the man who killed off Gwen Stacy) became Spidey's scripter with issue #111. Spider-Man's artwork features some major revolving door action as well, with John Romita (Sr.) inking Gil Kane and then doing the pencils again, then Kane taking over with a different inker, ...
